- lucamark 3mo agoUh great! I haven't seen these posts, thanks for the links :)
- ndiddy 3mo agoSo not only is the AI buildout increasing people's utility bills and the prices of consumer electronics, but now the general public isn't even allowed to benefit from the advanced AI models enabled by the buildout, only whatever large companies OpenAI and Anthropic let through their approval process. I guess the rest of us will have to wait for 6 months from now when Deepseek releases a Mythos class model at 5% of the cost.
- lucamark 3mo agowhile I generally agree that models with this level of cyber capability should not necessarily be released to everyone on day one, if a company or developer can meet compliance requirements, they should be eligible - and eligibility should not be based on nationality. Your point is interesting! And with a Mythos-class model already on the market (e.g. DeepSeek or GLM), will OpenAI and Anthropic be forced to apply the same policy?
- pitched 3mo agoFrom what I gather, this is Anthropic-only because of disagreement there. OpenAI is not subject to apply the policy and the US has no power to limit foreign companies like Deepseek and GLM.
- lucamark 3mo ago> In other words, the Trump administration appears to be pressuring OpenAI to do what Anthropic is already voluntarily doing: keeping its most powerful AI models under wraps.
- Varelion 3mo agoCrony capitalism.
- nailer 3mo ago> From what I gather, this is Anthropic-only because of disagreement there. What have you gathered? This very article is about the US government asking OpenAI to limit the release of models due to infosec / bioweapon concerns.
- pitched 3mo agoOh wow, I really mixed that up! Thanks! That really changes this lol
- Varelion 3mo agoWorth outlining that the public isn't even benefiting as a utility while subsidizing it as though it were one -- they don't have the option to pay for it. It's a fucking clown country ran by clowns. Doesn't help when you have things like an AI company accusing another of 'stealing' from them, when they themselves committed wholesale theft on humanity's work.

- tibbydudeza 3mo agoI am not worried - for my personal research projects I switched to Deepseek. I cannot use it for my daily work (Copilot tokens was exhausted by the 20th because NDA's and security and I am remote for a US corp).

- tibbydudeza 3mo agoInstallation is blocked - if it was pure JS install and not try and install an binary exe as well.
